    Fragment 16

    Между тем собрались и прочие приглашенные. Между ими, кроме самого генерала, не было ни одного военного человека. Когда все уселись и всем разнесли по чашке чаю, генерал изложил весьма ясно и пространно, в чем состояло дело. «Теперь, господа, — продолжал он, — надлежит решить, как нам действовать противу мятежников: наступательно или оборонительно? During this time the other guests had assembled. There were no military men among them except for the General. When all were seated, and each one had been offered a cup of tea, the General explained lengthily and minutely what was the affair in hand.
    "Now, gentlemen, we must decide how we mean to act against the rebels. Shall it be offensively or defensively?
